====== Energy ======

**Energy** is a regenerating pool of points possessed by all characters which can be spent to go on [[missions]].

Exposure to certain extreme [[weather]] events and sprinting for long periods of time will each deplete the character's energy, while eating food, sleeping in a bed, or roleplaying (while not fatigued from not sleeping) will replenish it.

Energy is displayed as a percentage value on the yellow bar beneath the purple [[sanity]] bar and above the green [[activity]]/[[experience]] bar. By default, characters possess a pool of 100 energy points.

A character's max energy can be increased via the [[Athletic]] [[background trait]], while its rate of expenditure can be modified by the [[Night Owl]] background trait.
